[QUOTE="Doom2, post: 2656285, member: 108323"] You will have to prove that the ammunition is at fault as stated above. To do that the only way to achieve that is to have each round tested that you have tested and that would probably be by a third party acceptable to the manufacturer and you. This would be at your expense. If you send the ammunition back to the manufacturer he will test it but is under no obligation to share the information with you. Unless he recalls the lot you may not know the results. It is highly unlikely that you would receive any compensation without opening up a law suit. You put more than the cost of a new fire at risk doing that. I have to agree with other posters that this appears to be an out of battery issue. You haven't posted a picture of the case involved or the bolt and carrier but if the barrel is intact and the lugs are not sheered it's a slam fire or out of battery firing. AR's tend to event by biowing out the magazine on case failures. [/QUOTE]
